-1 for Zaganh, after a month of receiving my side of the trade he has yet to post the decks from his side of the deal
In brief, currently the problem is that I live in Aus and so trading with him by sending decks from my end would have resulted in a very large shipping price. In order to save on this, I bought a mixed brick from D&D and shipped it to his address. This was done during the ace fultons mixed brick deal and so a midnight was also sent.
As Zaganh did not have a midnight edition, he would wait till he received the package from D&D before he sent me a mixed brick of orange and tobacco Ace Fultons and the midnight deck he received from my order back to me.
He received the decks around the 25th of October and informed me of this. However, since then he keeps informing me that he has "financial difficulties" in raising sufficient funds to send my decks over to me and would wait till he got paid before sending it. It has been over a month and yet he still has not posted the decks despite frequent messages asking him to which are only met with more BS about financial difficulties.
What astounds me about this situation is that he was the one who initiated the trade, with the unspoken implication that he can at least afford the small cost of shipping. Furthermore, this sum is not a large sum. I am confident that Zaganh has some friends or parents IRl who would be willing to lend him $30 for shipping so he can keep up his end of the commitment which would be the alternative a decent human being would have taken when they did not have the sufficient funds.
Now the Tobacco and Orange decks are still not sold out at D&D (at least back when the trade was started) and I could have easily taken this risk free route to get the deck, but I did this to help a fellow member of the community out, albeit also to get an extra midnight deck, but hey, I'm not a saint.
Below are some of the messages I received from Zaganh, there are a lot more sent to my email which contains more BS stemming from the end of October which I have not included.
